Just wanted to say I’ve been following Matt and Free Salon Education for a few years now. I’ve been a stylist for about 22 years. Matt is my absolute favorite person ( and really the only person online I watch)to watch cut hair and learn from. I relate to his style of cutting and he makes it so easy to learn. I’m so grateful to have this site to watch and learn from. I recommend your site all the time. Thank you!
